Q: I sold my house back in April 2020 and now the title company is calling me saying I had a supplemental tax from 2015.
The house is not in my name anymore do I have to pay this tax and if so should the owner title insurance cover this. Also If I don't pay it what can they do?
A: They may end up paying it, but they will likely chase you for reimbursement if it proves to be your obligation that was due.

A: If you conveyed by Warranty Deed, you may have breached the Covenant Against Encumbrances. Did anyone perform a title search before you sold?
